About Cuadros de queso frito
Cuadros de Queso Frito, or Fried Cheese Squares, are a beloved appetizer or snack originating from Latin American and Caribbean cuisine. Made by coating firm cheese like queso blanco or mozzarella in a seasoned breadcrumb or flour batter, these squares are deep-fried to golden perfection. The result is a crispy exterior that encases warm, gooey cheese. While they are a delicious treat, their nutritional profile leans indulgent due to the frying process, contributing to higher levels of saturated fat and calories. However, they do provide a source of protein and calcium from the cheese. For a healthier spin, baking or air-frying can reduce the fat content while retaining the rich, savory flavors. Ideal for sharing, Cuadros de Queso Frito are a satisfying comfort food with a tantalizing crunch.
